My power is 340rwkw now, may go up in the future, but I built the engine so I didn't put a hole in the side of my block!the normal rods from atomic are good for around 450rwkw I beleive - possibly upto 500 - but I'd go the fat rods if I was going past there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 11/02/08 03:03 PM Share Posted 11/02/08 03:03 PM After fitting and all other bits and pieces needed I think it's up around $8k. They're only about $5k to buy so if you're handy with a set of spanners and can get trade price from Ford, it could be done a little cheaper.
